Aviation Infrastructure

Through a variety of community partnerships (local landowners, government representatives, and nearby NGO's), we were able to establish an airstrip in Bombardopolis back in 2020.  With the help of HFAM supporters, very dear friends in Christ from Canada, and local Haitian workers, in 2023 the runway was extended from 2,000 ft to 2700 ft. This has allowed us to utilize the Cessna 207 to its fullest capacity, and provides added safety for takeoff and landing.  

Next, we are seeking funding in the coming months, for the 5-year renewal the lease of the land where the runway and hangar are located. The need is $12,000.  If you are interested in helping toward this goal, please click below to donate.

God is amazing. And, he works fast!  

We are so pleased to report that the hangar construction is complete at our base in Bombardopolis. Thanks to you, our generous supporters, as well as local labourers on the ground here, we are excited to announce the pilot and medic quarters are complete.  This includes a kitchen/common area/desk, 2 bedrooms with accommodations to sleep up to 8 people, and 2 bathrooms. In addition, power is up and running at the hangar, as is internet, and surveillance cameras for security.  

The finished exterior walls are two feet thick, the metal roof is in place, and a hangar door from Diamond Doors are all complete.

This hangar will undoubtedly protect the aircraft from the elements (especially during hurricane season)!  There is also a vision to create a special storage area on the mezzanine level, where medical supplies and equipment needed can be added for quick utilization by Haitian and expat medical and aviation personnel.

This spring, HFAM will need to make a new payment on lease of the land that occupies the hangar, runway and well.
